Abstract: A method of obtaining a virtual measurement result for an inactive channel in a wireless telecommunications system, the system including one or more terminals and a base station providing one or more active channels for communicating wireless signals with the one or more terminals, wherein a channel is inactive if it is not currently provided by the base station for use by the one or more terminals. The method includes: selecting an active channel of the one or more active channels; obtaining a first measurement result based on signals transmitted by the base station on the active channel: and deriving a virtual measurement result for the inactive channel from the first measurement result, thereby obtaining a virtual measurement result for the inactive channel.

Abstract: A network infrastructure equipment establishes a configuration of radio resources within a second frequency band for use by a terminal device for communications with network infrastructure equipment based on a first radio access technology and communicates an indication of that to the terminal device. The terminal device establishes a configuration of radio resources for use by the terminal device for communications based on a second radio access technology and determines if there is any overlap in radio resources configured for use by two different radio access technologies, and if so communicates an indication of that to the network infrastructure equipment. In response the network infrastructure equipment establishes a replacement configuration of radio resources for communications with the terminal device based on the first radio access technology that avoids the radio resources indicated as subject to overlap, and transmits an indication of the replacement configuration to the terminal device.

Abstract: A communications device configured to transmit/receive signals to/from an infrastructure equipment of a mobile communications network includes a receiver, a transmitter, and a controller. The communications device is configured to: receive from a mobile communications network an indication listing narrowband carriers provided by one or more infrastructure equipment forming one or more cells of the mobile communications network, and an indication of type of the narrowband carriers; to measure a strength of signals received from each of the narrowband carriers, to select one of the narrowband carriers based on the type and a value of the measured strength of the signals received from the narrowband carriers, and to transmit signals to the infrastructure equipment providing the selected narrowband carrier to inform the mobile communications network that the communications device can receive data from the mobile communications network via the selected narrowband carrier to reduce an uplink transmission power.

Abstract: A communications device transmitting data to and receiving data from a mobile communications network, includes a transmitter, a receiver, and a controller configured to control the transmitter and receiver to transmit and receive the data via a wireless access interface. The controller is configured to identify during an initialization phase, from received information, a predetermined priority for synchronizing the transmitter and receiver, the predetermined priority including at least one of a global navigation signal, a regional navigation signal and a synchronization signal received from another communications device, the global navigation signal and the regional navigation signal having a higher priority than the synchronization signal received from the other communications device, and to control the transmitter and the receiver to synchronize the transmitting and the receiving based on a selected one of the global navigation signal, the regional navigation signal, and the synchronization signal in accordance with the predetermined priority.

Abstract: A mobile communications system, methods, and communication terminals. A first of plural communications terminals is configured to determine, based on current communications conditions, one of plural predetermined priority levels representing a relative ability of the first communications terminal to act as a relay node for a second of the plural communications terminals, and to transmit an indication of the determined priority level to the second communications terminals for one of the first or other communications terminals to be selected to act as a relay node for the second communications terminal. The second communications terminal is configured to receive from the first communications terminal the indication of the determined priority level, to receive from the other communications terminals indications of determined priority levels, to select one of the first communications terminals or one or more of the other communications terminals to act as a relay node for the second communications terminal.
